Self hostable is nice; less privacy risk and more power to the individual. Open source is kind of amazing. This is the way.

That is impressive! The pandemonium halls can be downright harrowing, so I think you will beat hell easily. I don’t recall ever seeing that message, it must be new since the last time I beat the pan halls long ago.

It’s because they are controlled by capitalists. Capitalists have shown the whole world what they stand for these past 4 years.

That stupid Newsom age-gating OS bill is pure political theatre. It won’t affect Linux – too many capitalists would be inconvenienced, and inconveniencing capitalists is the last thing capitalist darling Newsom would do; he couldn’t even be bothered to support a modest 5% tax on billionaires.

Linux is here to stay – it runs the internet. And it will always be customizable, because that’s part of what gives it so much value.

Fucking stupid. What now, everyone adds a script to enter 04/01/1984 for every continuous integration pipeline? Every kubernetes cluster has to include an age automation? Idiot politicians should not draft policies about shit they have no clue about.

I disagree. Being able to choose which llm features I want is a win, and being able to use a local llm to translate language is better than sending data to Google to do that.

I’d go with Ubuntu LTS - it receives updates for 5 years and security updates only for another 5 years. In other words, it is explicitly for your use case. Additionally, it offers kernel live patching as a free managed service, which nobody else offers afaik.

Funny, I went the opposite direction. I wanted one source of truth for all my devices.

For 2fa, I highly recommend 2fas – it is free, open source, available for web and mobile, and it’s interface is smart. Lots of 2fa apps are stupid, Google auth included. Authy is especially stupid. Bitwarden also does 2fa, and it’s super convenient because it adds the code directly to the clipboard usually.

For notes, consider obsidian.

You could make it an alias and shorten the number of keystrokes

I prefer keeping my aliases in ~/.bash_aliases, which is sourced in my ~/.bashrc, ie

. ~/.bash_aliases

Then you would just need to source your bashrc to load it the first time.

Not yet it seems. Also looks like it doesn’t have a pedometer function. Hopefully a future version will add those, along with some way of downloading that data

gpodder could probably accomplish what you want

Not an app, but you could get a usb-c to HDMI converter and then plug your phone into the HDMI port on your TV

Those are indeed normal stumbling blocks.Thanks for being one of the very few Linux game devs!

You could host gitea locally on a spare computer and use that to store you dotfiles.

Check /var/log/syslog, dmesg, and /var/log/auth.log

Like the others suggest, try setting up ssh access so you can see what’s happening.

If you use ssh and login, I’d recommend using top or htop and maybe diskhogs and see what’s up

It’s an immutable distro that leverages containers to allow you to install packages from different distros. Further, it provides friendly tools and guis to make this easier than it would otherwise be

Neato

Like, the 2012 model? That should work. Xubuntu would run nicely.
